Notes for BOS members: * The course on Computer System Design shall be a combination of DLD+CO. Since MCA may have students with non-science background, the curriculum has to be designed to take care of this. $ Energy, Environment and Ecology : same as in BTech curriculum # There is no theory exam, lecture is to supplement and preparatory to lab work

Objectives of the course: To impart basic Communication skills to the first year UG students in the English language through rigorous practice and use of various category of common words and how their application in sentences; to enable them to achieve effective language proficiency for their social, professional & inter personal communication both in speaking & writing. Desired Outcome of the Course: The student must be able to: i) Understand and use about 1200 to 1500 General Purpose words of English language, ii) Express his /her ideas and thoughts in speech or writing, iii) Be able to comprehend, converse, interact and participate in any day-to-day events and situation iv) Write grammatically correct sentences for various forms of written communication to express oneself. Key Concepts: Context of Communication, as means of sharing, Speaker- Listener and Writer Reader relationship, medium of communication, barriers to communication, accuracy, brevity, clarity and appropriateness in communication. Writing Skills: Words for general purpose use. Sentence formation and using given set of words. Transforming word usage for different tenses, using words for narrative in first, second & third person. Semantics of connectives, modifiers and models, sentence variety and paragraphs, Cohesion and coupling, structure of basic letters, reports & document preparation introduction to conclusion. Referencing & listing of references. Speaking Skills: Speech and verbal communication, articulation, paralinguistics, Pause and its use, formal and informal speaking, debate, extempore and discussion. Task oriented, personal and inter-personal communication. Reading Comprehension: Kinds and types of texts, abstracting, prcis writing and summarizing. Listening Comprehension: Fluency & speed, impact of pronunciation on comprehension, Intelligent listening, Teaching methodology: 1.The Professional Communication course needs to equip the student for oral & written communication in English language and meeting the requirements of situational communication ability. 2. The teacher must teach the course through examples, practice sessions and even the lectures must be conducted in the tutorial mode.

3. The teacher must function as a mentor, guide and facilitator for the student to understand the words that have been identified for practice and their use in different situations be given as the assignment for the student to write and speak with one another. 4. The course has to be taught in small batches of 20 to 25 and in the language lab so that continuous and intense practice is recorded, and the track of the students progress is maintained on per lecture basis. 5. The Books suggested are as base texts and may be expanded upon for giving larger scope of practice to the students. It is important to promote self learning by asking the students to use the internet for finding language training material and content, which can then be used a classroom tasks.

Fiske , John Introduction to Communication Studies Rotledge, London, 1990. Performance Evaluation & Examination: The student will have to perform on per lecture basis and the peer to peer learning and evaluation method is to be used. However, since the students will be given class tests and assignments hence these will have to be corrected and marked by the teachers and the marks made public with formative feedback to the student explaining where the mistake is and what the correct ways to answer the questions are. Assignments are to be given to reinforce the concepts and extend the practice of words and their usage by the student in different situations, tenses and accounts in first, second or third person. The Course examination will be practical based and the student will have to be proficient to demonstrate the language capability as will be tested on the basis of question paper sent from the university.
